Projects include evolution of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, studies of dense matter applied to the problem of neutron star interiors, and other problems in astrophysics. Also included are studies of nuclear forces and nuclear structure with subfemtometer resolution; quark models of hadron structure; correlations between nucleons in nuclei and of subnuclear degrees of freedom, as seen in high-energy lepton scattering; and studies of nuclear vibrational modes, giant resonances, the quasielastic region, and collective motion at finite temperature.
